Fundraiser done by the artists- tour groups
I share your concerns about funding- I think it's great if the artists help plan an event- one has been proposed by Jennifer Russo- a "Pay the Rent" based on the old rave concept-except no drugs. This very popular in London and New York right now - the New York Times just did an article on this- it also brings the thirty something people to the studio. We could possibly raise $10,000 by charging 10-to 15 dollars to get in and selling say 750 tickets and $5,000 by doing the raffle tickets. Jennifer Russo has said she would be point person- but I believe that she would need some help from the Board and staff. The Galleries are down for April so we could do it the middle of April.
It is my personal goal and priority to close out all arrears to the Tri-Main Center by the end of April. I spoke with Elgin and Matt regarding this type of time frame. They were both ok with that.
Perhaps interested parties could meet before the next Board meeting for a brief meeting to flush out concepts for a fundraiser - say next Saturday February 17 at 9 am till 10 for coffee-donuts in the community space. I have classes coming in starting at 10:30 so I will be busy by 10:15. I do believe staff should be a part of this as we will need to help a little so as not double up on asks. Lauren is away on vacation February 14- 23 so I will be filling her spot at this meeting.
-additional note on tours
Tour groups planned -I need artists to talk to high school and college art students-
February 21 at 1:30 in the afternoon- ECC art appreciation course
March 15th at 9:30 am Cleveland High School art students
As agreed students will spend about 90 minutes touring artists studios and the galleries. Joanna Angie, Director will give the tour of the artist studios. Brooke Fitzpatrick, Curator will give the tour of the galleries. Artists in the two front galleries are Marni Schindelman and Krista Birnbaum. See attached resumes.
At least six of the following artists in residence will be present Joanna Angie, William Y. Cooper, Kara Daving, Catherine Shuman Miller, Bryan Hopkins, Roberto Pacheco, Kathleen Sherin, Nancy Smith, Rosemarie Sroka.

Buffalo Arts Studio has a very interesting opening of two
out of town artists that address animal issues. I'ld like to have the
opening well attended so I've enclosed an email invite. Please help make

the studio and an opportunity for you to show your friends where you
work and what BAS is about- new emerging artists. I could use some help
working the door the night of maybe three one hour shifts- we want to
educate people about BAS programs.
Marni Shindelman- "Souvenirs from Human, My Mammal"
color photographs in the front gallery
Krista Birnbaum-"The Loneliness of the Species"

Welcome to the BAS Blog!
At the artist's meeting tonight, Kathy Sherin and I decided that a good way to keep us all in touch with all the news and events at the studio would be an online blog. So, here we are...
Now to keep the posting a bit organized, there is an email address set up: buffaloartsstudio(at)gmail(dot)com . Send any announcements, comments, or even links to the address, and we'll make sure it's posted ASAP. PLEASE use the comment section- you can rsvp or comment- that way we have an active dialogue going- it's better than hoping that you run into someone at the studio at some point. Keep this link in your favorites and check it often- a lot of good things will be happening at BAS in 2007!
